The role of grazing in ecosystem service delivery in saltmarsh restoration schemes

Managed realignment, where coastal flood defences are breached or lowered to introduce tidal inundation to the coastal hinterland, is becoming an increasingly popular approach to coastal management to restore saltmarsh environments and compensate for habitat and ecosystem service loss elsewhere.

MScR: Species-rich grassland creation – analysis of soil samples.

Since World War II, approximately 97% of species-rich lowland meadows in the UK have been lost due to land use changes. Attempts to restore such biodiverse habitats, through agri-environment schemes and restoration of derelict land, indicate that soil conditions are often key influences on biodiversity. Read more

The relationship between vegetation and morphology in saltmarsh restoration schemes

Managed realignment, where coastal flood defences are breached or lowered to introduce tidal inundation to the coastal hinterland, is becoming an increasingly popular approach to coastal management to restore saltmarsh environments and compensate for habitat and ecosystem service loss elsewhere.

Restoration of microbial homeostasis as a novel intervention for immune ageing

With falling birth rates and increasing life expectancy we are an ageing population. This would be a cause for celebration if it were not for the fact that the period we spend in good health, healthspan, is not keeping pace with increased lifespan. Read more

QUADRAT DTP: Cultural landscape values and aesthetics of beaver-modified landscapes – a cross-cultural comparison

The United Nations Biodiversity Conference (COP15) highlighted the urgent action needed to reverse global biodiversity loss, adopting a Global Biodiversity Framework that stipulates restoring 30% of ecosystems by 2030. Read more

PhD in land-based CO2 removal strategies for climate change mitigation

Drastic and rapid emission reductions and the use of carbon dioxide (CO2) removal (CDR) technologies are essential for meeting the Paris Agreement on Climate and net-zero commitments (IPCC, 2021). Read more

Exploring the psychological impact of historic architecture

There is a wealth of research showing the benefits of natural environments on physical and psychological health and this has arguably led to a perception that nature is “good”, and the built environment is “bad”. Read more

Circular Economy Transitions in Tourism

The topic seeks to establish the current adoption of circular economy (CE) practice in tourism and identify strategies for accelerating the implementation of circularity within the sector. Read more

Understanding the Scottish rural land market in the context of the climate and biodiversity crises

  Research Group: The Urban Institute
Project Aim. This project aims to enhance our understanding of the nature and role of the Scottish rural land market and how this influences not just land ownership patterns but also land use and management practices. Read more
